Cute Tiny Owl Goes Viral So We Interviewed The Photographer (10 Pics)
After this super adorable photo of an owl hiding from rain took the internet by storm, we decided to reach out to the photographer Tanja Brandt to tell us more about it.
“Poldi, our little owl is 1,5 years old. I got him when he was five months old. He didn’t want to come out his egg and he was very small, the smallest. His six sisters were all hatched, and as he was the last to be born, days after the others, he was very small. I also have a Harris Hawk named Phönix, a Weissgesichtseule named Gandalf, and a snow owl named Uschi,” Tanja Brandt told Bored Panda.
“I think my animals like to be photographed. Why? Because I am always outside with my camera and with my animals. So we get to walk together, have fun, go on adventures, have little breaks… We take some pictures and after the animals can play again as we keep going. I know my animals very well and I can see their state of mind. If I go out with just one of my animals, the other get antsy and want to be with us. We have lot of fun together.”
“I’ve always loved animals, since I was a baby, unlike the rest of my family. When I was little, I found every sort of pet and then hid it for my parents. I love the beauty, power, loyalty, courage and friendship of animals. Many people could learn from them.”

I love when animals are caught on "film" if they are doing something they do naturally. Animals are so curious, adventurous, unpredictable, loving etc. They can sense whether or not you are a threat to them. Then there is always a showoff in the crowd. One cannot take it for granted there are no dangerous animals out there, because there are. And you are wise to know wich ones are trustworthy, and which ones are not.

Wonderful photos and the greatest beauty and power lies in the relationship she clearly has being a peer, not a superior, to animals. Worth repeating: "Many people could learn from them."

Of course she is superior. She's the one taking the beautiful photos of them.
